Mandate of Heaven is a chapter pack expansion for Total War: Three Kingdoms, developed by Feral Interactive and released in 2020 for Linux, macOS, and Windows. Set against the backdrop of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the expansion allows players to take command from either the rebel or loyalist side of the conflict. The campaign opens in 182 CE, earlier than the base game, and introduces new characters alongside additional playable faction leaders. Rather than ending with the rebellion itself, the timeline extends forward into the Three Kingdoms period, with established characters from the main game gradually entering the narrative as history unfolds. The turn-based strategy gameplay follows the series' familiar blend of large-scale real-time battles and strategic map management, with the dual-sided framing of the rebellion offering distinct starting conditions and objectives depending on the chosen faction.
